Trying to install FreeBSD 6.0 RC1. When booting the CD it hangs.

I see the following messages in verbose mode:
.....
acd2: Mechanism: ejectable tray, unlocked.
acd2: Medium: no/blanc disc
acd2: <NEC DVD RW ND-3540A/1.01>
      DVDR drive at ata3 as master
GEOM: new disk ad0
GEOM: new disk ad1

After the last acd2 message it take a whil (half a minute or so) till
teh GEOM messages appear. Then nothing happeened for over 15 minutes
and I gave up.


What means do I have to track it down?
